Current transformers can perform circuit control, measure current for power measurement and control, and perform roles for safety protection and current limiting. They can also cause circuit events to ...

One of the most dangerous locations in a power distribution system with regard to incident energy is that first panelboard on the secondary of a transformer. With some thought in your design — even if ...

We needed to detect motion in a commercial, stepper motor driven system and subsequently initiate motion in a servomotor based system we developed. Because both systems simulate human respiratory ...

Gas switches and linear transformer drivers (LTDs) form the cornerstone of modern pulsed power systems. Gas switches, typically relying on the ionisation of gas to establish rapid conductive channels, ...

Matt Cuhadar is a key member of the Ametherm team, Matt Cuhadar has provided support for the company's customers as an application and sales engineer for the last two years. He holds a B.Sc. in ...

Average current-mode control (CMC) requires that the total waveform of the current be reconstructed for the control loop. This article presents the steps required to select the transformer and how to ...

The units feature an intuitive orange three-position (Operating, Shorting and Measuring) disconnect lever. Engaging the lever fully automatically short-circuits the transformer when using the required ...
